What We Think Others Think and Do About Climate Change: A Multi-Country Test of Pluralistic Ignorance and Public Consensus Messaging Open
Most people believe in human-caused climate change, yet this public consensus can be collectively underestimated (pluralistic ignorance). Across two studies using primary (n = 3,653 adult participants; 11 countries) and secondary (ns = 60,…

Sustainability insights from Late Pleistocene climate change and horse migration patterns Open
Climate affects habitat, food availability, and the movement and sustainability of all life. In this work, we apply Indigenous and Western scientific methods, including genomics and isotope profiling, on fossils from across Beringia to exp…

Receiver response to high-intensity courtship differs with courter status in spotted bowerbirds <i>Ptilonorhynchus maculatus</i> Open
Understanding sexual communication requires assessing the behaviour of both the sender and the receiver. Receiver responses to sexual displays carry relevant information, but such signals or cues may be subtle and therefore technically cha…

What We Think Others Think About Climate Change: Generalizability of Pluralistic Ignorance Across 11 Countries Open
The majority of people worldwide believe in human-caused climate change. Yet this social consensus is often underestimated, potentially undermining individual climate action. This preregistered study tests (a) whether systematic mispercept…

Lessons learned in animal acoustic cognition through comparisons with humans Open
Humans are an interesting subject of study in comparative cognition. While humans have a lot of anecdotal and subjective knowledge about their own minds and behaviors, researchers tend not to study humans the way they study other species. …

Do social interactions predict similarities in audio-visual courtship signals in spotted bowerbirds? Open
Spotted bowerbirds perform a multi-modal courtship display on dedicated structures -bowers -that are built by one resident male.Bower owners tolerate the presence of specific subordinate males at their bowers, yet the role of these male-ma…

Universal principles underlying segmental structures in parrot song and human speech Open
Despite the diversity of human languages, certain linguistic patterns are remarkably consistent across human populations. While syntactic universals receive more attention, there is stronger evidence for universal patterns in the inventory…

Learning to be attractive: A test of the skills hypothesis in spotted bowerbirds (Ptilonorhynchus maculatus) Open
Male spotted bowerbirds perform vigorous courtship dances to visiting females on elaborate display arenas. Each arena is built and defended by one dominant male, which commonly tolerates one or more subordinate males. These non-territorial…

Segmental units in nonhuman animal vocalization as a window into meaning, structure, and the evolution of language Open
Human vocalizations are made up of meaningless units or segments that are combined to create meaningful words and phrases. Jackendoff (1999) hypothesized that the ability of humans to combine segments together is necessitated by the fact t…

Octave equivalence perception is not linked to vocal mimicry: budgerigars fail standardized operant tests for octave equivalence Open
Octave equivalence describes the perceived similarity of notes separated by an octave or a doubling in frequency. In humans, octave equivalence perception is used in vocal learning, enabling young children to approximate adult sounds where…
